Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

[Chorus]
Once I ran to you
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love
Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

[Chorus]
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Once I ran to you
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love

Take me I'm yours, take me I'm yours
Come on now and take me
Take me amour, take me I'm yours
Come on now and take me

Oh, don't you be so nice to me
Oh, you can't be serious
A pretty girl like yourself
You'll be my perfect partner and the time is getting right

Take me I'm yours, take me I'm yours
Come on now and take me
Take me amour, take me I'm yours
Come on, now, and take me

I love the way you wear your hair
I saw the way you stopped and stared
When I looked at you, oh no, oh no
Well maybe girls like you aren't free
But baby, baby can't you see
I just want to be with you

You walked through the room
Continental style and sweet perfume
A pretty girl like yourself
You've got a new approach and the time is getting right

Take me I'm yours, take me I'm yours
Come on now and take me
Take me amour, take me amour
Come on, now, and take me
Take me

I was only a child of the city
My parents were children of immigrant stock
So we followed as followers go
Over a mountain with a napkin of snow
And ate the berries and roots
That grown along the timberline
Deeper and deeper the dreamer of love
Sleep on a quilt of stars

It's cold
Sometimes you can't catch your breath
It's so cold

Time and abundance thickened his step
So the teacher divided in two
One half ate the forest and fields
The other half sucked all the moisture from the clouds
And we, we were amazed at the power of his appetite

Deeper and deeper the dreamer of love
Sleeps on a quilt of stars

Sometimes we don't know who we are
Sometimes force overpowers us and we cry
My teacher carry me home
Carry me home my teacher
Carry me home
Carry me home my teacher
Carry me home

Wet days in September
Raindrops fallin' tender
As I stare outside my window
And I see the clouds are passin' by
I am feelin' lonely -
Uh
I love you
Uh
I want you
Uh
I need you so I think I'll die

And as I fall asleep
All the tears I weep
Are because
Uh
I love you
Uh
I want you
Uh
I need you so I think I'll die

But there's the morning sun
And all wakes upthat I can be fun
Then all my dreams are gone
But how can I dream when you're gone my love
And you're makin' love
With every girl
But not with me?
Yes times have been changed since you went away
That I heard you say:
I love you
I need you
So much I think I'll die
Yeah
I love you need you
So much I think I'll die

Why must I remember
Every wet day in September?
Just because
Uh
I love you
Uh
I want you
Uh
I need you so I think I'll die
But there's the morning sun...
But how can I dream when you're gone my love...
